The shticks you may have missed!
Friend — | What a night! With an all-star lineup, nostalgic tunes, and the option to attend in our pajamas, we were eagerly awaiting the new experience of a virtual gala this year. But we had no idea it would leave us plotzing so hard!
If you weren’t able to join us, we have fantastic news: You can now watch the full recording of the event any time you want. |

| Thank you to all who attended, raised their glass to The Forward's work and showed their support through a donation or an online bid.
Everyone who joined learned more about our work, met some of the journalists who write the intelligent articles and compelling stories that you love, and heard from our CEO & publisher, Rachel Fishman Feddersen, our editor-in-chief, Jodi Rudoren and many others.
For those of you who made a gift, know that we are incredibly appreciative of your generous support.
If you didn't get a chance to give, there's still time. Please consider donating to be part of the celebration. Your support makes fiercely independent Jewish journalism possible all year long and will make sure that events like this continue to bring together the talented community of American Jews. |
